Abatron stuff sounds good.
Remember if you use something that delaminates the space where the caulk is kinda on and off of the tiki will hold water to the wood in the cracks and not let the wood dry out.

That is a bad thing and will make it rot more.

If you don't need your backyard décor to be on all the time you could cover the tiki with a trash bag and remove when you are out or have a party, the copper top is a good idea as well and you could take the top off and the the wood dry every now and then.

Make sure you have a drain hole so water will not collect in the hole as well.

So I found a picture of that tiki with the float on top, this tiki was from the Kahiki as well.
This will give you an idea of how that looks.

Here is a photo of Wayne's shop in FLA.
